A Reusable Cobalt Catalyst for Reversible Acceptorless Dehydrogenation and Hydrogenation of N‐Heterocycles

Abstract The development of robust catalytic systems based on base‐metals for reversible acceptorless dehydrogenation (ADH) and hydrogenation of feedstock chemicals is very important in the context of ‘hydrogen storage’. Herein, we report a highly efficient reusable cobalt‐based heterogeneous catalyst for reversible dehydrogenation and hydrogenation of N‐heterocycles. Both the ADH and the hydrogenation processes operate under mild, benign conditions.
